Submitting articles is easy. All you have to do is write a 500 words (or more) essay and submit it in the most approriate (of the 3 articles) forum. Once you post it, a staff member will have to approve the article before it gets posted in iDB.

Once the article gets posted, members can comment and rate the thread. Please rate the thread based on how useful the article is. This will help readers pick which articles to read.
ABOUT : Re-sumitting Articles:

To protect people's intellectual properties, we require non-staff to verify through neomail that they are in-deed the author of that article

1) submit your article as usual
2) contact any supermod that you are infact the author of that message. NOTE: the username you use must match the username listed in the original article.

If you are sumitting a brand new article, then you do not need to do this.
NOTE: If you are re-submitting articles, you must do step 2. If found plagiarizing someone's article, you will be subject to heavy heavy raises in warning bar and fines [possible expulsion from the forum].

also, in regards to prize, they will be rewarded after 60 days or once your article reaches 50 votes. whichever comes first.
I have a couple of questions...

1. Can any mod review (And accept/reject) your article or only supermods? This way I can know approximately how long it'll take for an article to be reviewed.

2. Are we informed if our article is rejected?

3. Is there any way to edit out article after submitting it?

4. Is it 50 votes on IDB or on these forums?
Are regular members aloud to submit articles?
yea
Do I press new topic or new poll?
Just wondering: If your article gets an average of 4 or more than you get the trophy? Or if the mods rate it as 4?
Any way it could be set up so you know if your article was rejected? Maybe a PM or something...
Are you allowed to submit the same type of article, but it has some stuff added to it?

For instance, I submitted an article about Weapon Combos, bu I got a lot more combos, then can I submit it again with the added combos?
i should try to make an article~! B)
Well I have two articles that I would like to type up... I dont think 500 words will be much of a problem at all but I dont know if this is the kind or article or Ideas we need... let me know what you think here I guess... Unless your a Mod//Admin//Rater dont do it on this post though please just send me a PM... the 2 articles would be titled...

1. Leaf Shield and Shields in General

2. Weapon Advice & Comparison May as well be called Set Builds

1 seems fitting and can explore the usefulness and exagerated claims of the Leaf shield and Similiar shields Capabilities that I have seen lately on WAaC...

2 may arise some peoples attention and it would be an add on to a section of Sir Hatters Post pointing out that WAaC is causeing price rifts and replicated set builds that is damageing the value of the Neopets Dome... however maybe rather then an article I could toss this as a large spoilered post in IDB Ideas, Suggestions, and Bugs and see what every1's take is on this one...
